⭐️ Editor’s Prediction
We suggest backing Invictus Gaming to win. Although they enter as underdogs, the Chinese side have claimed victory in three of their last five outings, including a crucial win over JD Gaming. The best-of-one format could be a game-changer-one well-timed early skirmish or a draft advantage can swing the outcome dramatically. Gen.G are in stronger form overall, taking six wins from their last seven matches, but the odds on their victory are just 1.25. Given the attractive price and the inherent unpredictability of a single-map showdown, there’s every chance Invictus Gaming could pull off an upset here.
